Abstract

A display device (1) comprises a matrix (2) of selectively settable liquid crystal cells (3) and a plurality of light sources (4, 5, 6) to produce a plurality of beams of differently coloured light. Light shutter means (7, 8, 9 or 20) provided between the matrix (2) and the light sources (4, 5, 6) include a plurality of liquid crystal portions (7, 8, 9 or 21) which are each switchable between a light-transmitting mode and a light-blocking mode. Colour selective sequential illumination of the matrix is effected by appropriate switching of the plurality of liquid crystal portions (7, 8, 9 or 21) between modes.
